Camps & After School

Experience camping and afterschool programs at the J!

The J is committed to Camping — summer day camp, residential camp, or for days off school. With two award-winning experiences, your children will have the time of their lives this summer.

Discover the Spirit! J Day Camps

J Day Camps has been providing fantastic summer camp experiences for four generations of campers and staff. We offer a variety of camps for children age 3-15: traditional day camp, sports camp, arts camps, gymnastics camp, STEM camps, specialty camps and more. One of our families’ favorite features of J Day Camps is that campers participate in certified swim instruction (except for half-day camp options) nearly every day!

Spend a Life-Changing Summer at Camp Sabra

Camp Sabra is a premier Jewish residential (sleep-away) camp, located on the Staenberg Peninsula at the Lake of the Ozarks. We welcome campers entering third through tenth grades. In a natural and beautiful setting on three miles of private shoreline, Camp Sabra offers sailing, water skiing, tubing, outdoor sports, theatre, camp fires, challenge courses and SO much more!

When school is out, Vacation Days are in!

Your child can spend their days off at the J with friends and engage in a variety of activities (like swimming, games, crafts and recreation) at both J locations. Vacation Days run from 9am to 3pm on days when local school districts are not in session – holidays and snow days. Before- and after-care options are available, too. Vacation Days are for kids in grades K-5th at the Staenberg Family Complex and for grades K-8th at the Marilyn Fox Building.

Join The Club!

The Club, the J’s before- and after-school enrichment program, offers educational, fun, and diverse activities in a safe environment. The Club serves students at Willow Brook Elementary and Remington School at the Staenberg Family Complex in Creve Coeur and students at Ascension School, Wild Horse Elementary and Crestview Middle School at the Marilyn Fox Building in Chesterfield.
